ALL

Intro. This survey is an important part of a larger study supported under a contract
from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for
Children and Families to Mathematica Policy Research. The overall purpose of
this study is to understand the use of the We Grow Together: The Q-CCIIT
Professional Development System. We Grow Together aims to help caregivers
in center-based and family child care interact with infants and toddlers in ways
that promote positive outcomes for children. Participation in this project is
voluntary.
This survey requests information about your background, experience, and
opinions and information about your program. No one from your program will
see or hear your individual responses and your name will never be associated
with or identified in study reports This survey will take approximately 30
minutes to complete.

ATTACHMENT 3B. BACKGROUND SURVEY – PD PROVIDER

Glossary
In this survey, we use the following terms:
(Infant and toddler) “caregiver” - teachers of infants and toddlers in centerbased care or in family child care (FCC) homes.
Classroom - both center-based classrooms and FCCs.
Coaching - a relationship-based process usually led by an expert with
specialized early childhood development and education, and adult learning
knowledge and skills. In We Grow Together the coach serves in a different
professional role than the caregivers. Coaching is designed to build specific
knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behaviors that will improve quality in
caregiving.
Mentoring - a relationship-based process between colleagues in similar
professional roles. A mentor is a more-experienced individual with adult
learning knowledge and skills. The mentor provides guidance and examples to
the less-experienced mentee. Mentoring is intended to increase a person’s
professional effectiveness.
PD provider - the local person who provides professional development and is
also participating with a caregiver in this study.
Professional Development includes any activity to support an individual in
gaining the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behaviors of a high quality early
childhood education and care professional. The We Grow Together system
refers to all of the information and activities provided by We Grow Together and
the interactions between the caregiver and PD provider who are using We Grow
Together.

Setting - center-based early care and education settings and
FCCs. When we mention “programs” these could be FCCs or center-based
settings.

Supervising - activities conducted by an individual who has an administrative
role, for example, scheduling, approving leave, assuring that ratio and other
licensing rules are followed. Supervisors may contribute to high stakes
decisions, such as recommending promotions and compensation. Supervisors
also may provide technical assistance or other PD support to caregivers as
they oversee the quality of care.
Training - activities offered to support caregiver in learning what is needed to
provide infant-toddler care and education or to support the PD provider in
learning to be an effective coach. Training can be offered online or in-person,
and may be group or self-directed.
